Introduction & Specs

Introduction

In-Win has been in the enclosure business for many years now, but it has only been a couple since they first from OEM to retail products. Since our first In-Win review back in 2004 they have expanded their enthusiast line-up, today we have a close look at a small size “cute” case, aimed at the market.

The Allure design team gave the case a definte female touch, the classic white with flower pattern and small decorative stones on the side panels. The case is shipped in a compact box which matches the case design:

The case is wrapped in a protective foam bag to prevent damage to the side panels, it’s best to keep that foam bag around when you are installing the system, as it’s a good protection layer.

Specifications

This case is for micro-ATX motherboards, don’t expect to build a high end system in here, it’s meant for low-midrange systems as its diminutive size prevents large cooling fans to be installed. There’s still room inside for up to 4 hard drives and 2 optical drives though.

I wonder if women really want flowers on their case.

No, even some of the male gender like those, me for example. Makes me think of Japanese flower art
